/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In connection with recently signed Protocols
between Armenia and Turkey, Armenian National Congress (ANC) has
released a statement which says that Armenian-Turkish rapprochement
is in the interest of both states, as well as regional and
global security. Bilateral Protocols mark tangible progress in
Armenian-Turkish rapprochement, activists say.
However, ANC disapproves plans for creating an intergovernmental
committee of historians, as that may question the fact of Armenian
Genocide. ANC members express concerns that ratification of documents
by two countries' parliaments may enable President Sargsyan to
share RA Parliament's responsibility with regard to border opening,
whereas Turkey may delay ratification process, refusing to open
Armenian-Turkish border because of unresolved NKR conflict.
